The satellite galaxy Crater II (or Crater 2) of the Milky Way is located approximately 380,000 light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Crater....
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have captured a striking photo of the ultra-diffuse galaxy GAMA 526784.
This Hubble image shows GAMA...
Astronomers from the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States have found no trace of dark matter in AGC 114905, a gas-rich ultra-diffuse galaxy...
ESO’s VLT Survey Telescope (VST) has produced a spectacular image of NGC 3314, a pair of spiral galaxies located in the direction of the Hydra I cluster.
This...
Ultradiffuse galaxies are dwarf galaxies whose stars are spread out over a vast region, resulting in extremely low brightness, making them very difficult...
In a new study, astronomers used data from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope to calculate a more accurate distance to an ultra-diffuse galaxy called...
Astronomers using ESO’s VLT Survey Telescope, a 2.6-m wide-field optical survey telescope at Paranal Observatory in Chile, have discovered 27 low-surface...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have detected tidal tails in NGC 1052-DF4, a dark-matter-deficient galaxy some 65 million light-years...
The so-called self-interacting dark matter theory helps explain why NGC 1052-DF2 and NGC 1052-DF4, a pair of ultra-diffuse galaxies located approximately...
In 2018, a team of astronomers from the United States and Canada discovered that an ultra-diffuse galaxy called NGC 1052-DF2 (DF2 for short) contains virtually...
Ultra-diffuse galaxies are a relatively new class of galaxies that were first discovered in 2015. They are as large as our Milky Way but have between 100...
Astronomers using the W. M. Keck Observatory and the Gemini North telescope have found a galaxy that consists almost entirely of dark matter, the mysterious...
A group of astronomers, led by Dr Jin Koda of the Stony Brook University, has discovered 854 ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in the Coma cluster using images...
Astronomers using the Dragonfly Telephoto Array and the 10m telescope at the W.M. Keck Observatory on Maunakea, Hawaiʻi, have discovered 47 so-called...
